I feel like they started out with a great concept (the round edge boxes and black & blue on white) but got sidetracked along the way.

The navigation menu bothers me. As does the player photo to the right; I get that they were trying to tie their design in with PP.com's design but theirs is too big - it requires scrolling to see the whole image which is one of my webdesign pet peeves. (Horizontal scrolling is fine so long as it doesn't require vertical scrolling as well.)

I like the effort, but...

If you roll your cursor over the top 4 buttons, they cover the one below it, so if you want to change your navigation to the bottom row, it is inconvenient.

Yuck. History or not, blue is not a Penguins color. Ack! Pfft!

It looks like the blue man group had something to do with the design of this website/home page/net site.

Ugh! The previous one was really much better. It had some impact colors & good graphics. This one is just...blue. And white. With a huge player on the right.

I could seriously have designed a better page than that & that's not a brag! I don't consider myself a webpage designer. Kinda sad that they did this. Did they pay someone to do this?

I helped the Wranglers get their message board up & going & fixed their calendar & scheduling section...maybe I should offer my services to Wilkes/Barre?

I would say that they could use your services!!! Anything is better than what we're seeing now!
